Genital herpes is a common STI managed effectively with antiviral medications like acyclovir, valacyclovir, and famciclovir. While not curable, treatment reduces outbreaks and transmission. Klarity offers quick, online access to trusted providers for personalized herpes care.

What Are Genital Herpes Treatment Options?

Understanding Genital Herpes and Its Management

Genital herpes is a lifelong viral infection caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV), presenting with painful sores and recurrent outbreaks. Managing herpes involves medication, lifestyle adjustments, and regular medical care.

Effective Treatment Options for Genital Herpes

Antiviral Medications

The primary treatment includes antiviral drugs such as acyclovir, valacyclovir, and famciclovir. These help reduce the frequency and severity of outbreaks, lessen pain, and decrease the risk of transmission to partners.

Suppression Therapy

For frequent outbreaks, daily suppressive therapy can help minimize episodes and reduce viral shedding, lowering the risk of passing the virus.

Topical Treatments and Symptom Relief

In addition to oral antivirals, topical ointments may provide symptom relief during outbreaks, though they do not cure the infection.

Can Genital Herpes Be Cured?

No, genital herpes is a lifelong condition. However, with effective antiviral therapy, most patients manage symptoms well, leading normal lives and reducing transmission risk.
